EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "MFC-A-004683-0009" transports us back in time to the Church of Saints Severino and Sossio in Naples during the late 19th or early 20th century. The image showcases the exquisite wooden choirstalls within this sacred space, which are adorned with an array of intricate plant and animal motifs. Crafted between 1560 and 1573 by talented artists Bartolomeo Chiarini and Benvenuto Tortelli, these choirstalls stand as a testament to their exceptional skill in cabinet work. Each detail has been meticulously carved into the wood, creating a mesmerizing fusion of nature's beauty and artistic craftsmanship. The photograph itself was captured by renowned photographer Edizioni Brogi from Alinari. Through his lens, he immortalizes this remarkable piece of applied arts and crafts for generations to come. The composition allows us to appreciate not only the grandeur of the choirstalls but also their significance within the Church of SS. Severino e Sossio.

They serve as a reminder that art transcends temporal boundaries while simultaneously reflecting cultural heritage. This print is more than just an object; it encapsulates history, artistry, devotion, and reverence all at once. It invites us to delve into Neapolitan culture while igniting our imagination with stories untold. Let this image transport you back to a bygone era where creativity flourished under skilled hands – where every stroke of chisel breathed life into wood – where beauty intertwined with spirituality within the hallowed walls of Naples' Church of Saints Severino and Sossio.
